Conservation areas: Harrow Weald

Introduction

Harrow Weald Conservation Areas

There are two conservation areas in Harrow Weald. They are Harrow Weald Park conservation area and the Brookshill Drive and Grimsdyke Estate conservation area.

There is an overarching Harrow Weald Conservation Areas Supplementary Document (SPD) for the conservation areas that was adopted in February 2016. The purpose of the SPD is to provide a strategic overview of the issues affecting the conservation areas to provide guidance that will help in their preservation and enhancement.

The SPD has two appendices of conservation area appraisals and management strategies, which provide guidance on the character and appearance of the conservation areas and ways to preserve and enhance this character, are listed below:

Permitted development rights ie the right to carry out certain works without planning permission, are already restricted nationally for any conservation area. Some conservation areas have further requirements for planning permission in the form of Article 4 Directions. An Article 4 Direction applies to some buildings in the Brookshill Drive and Grimsdyke Estate Conservation Area, the information for which is available in the map above.
